Removable lashing and securing points on decks, trailers and structures already fitted with dovetail slippers; project cargo securing.
The dovetail shackle turns an installed dovetail slipper into a lashing point. Where the dovetail twistlock uses the slipper to hold a container down, the shackle uses the same socket to present a forged D-ring for chains or straps — so a deck or structure fitted out with slippers can take either, and neither needs welding on the day. It is the removable counterpart to a welded lashing eye: the slipper is the permanent part, the shackle comes and goes with the work.

Weldable dovetail twistlock for securing containers to structures or structures to containers; available in 45° and 55° configurations, left-hand (standard) and right-hand options.
Weldable dovetail slipper (45° and 55°, single and double) providing a permanent socket for matching dovetail twistlocks, allowing containers to be repeatedly mounted and removed without a permanent twistlock.
ABD-D1 bolted-on dovetail twistlock — a single-casting chassis on a 16 mm base plate that bolts to a concrete foundation or steel structure, securing a container with no permanent modification to the container itself.
Dovetail twistlock welded to a 200 x 200 x 16 mm base plate — the standard fabricated boltable, and the starting point for any bolt pattern, footprint or mounting arrangement a site requires.
